Porsche 911 996/997 Turbo Spoiler Drive Preparation and Shipping Instructions



We need the entire hydraulic assembly, which includes the pump, the lines, and the actuators. Do not send the wiring harness unless there is a problem with the microswitches, which we can repair at an extra cost.

  • Disconnect your wiring harness and microswitch assembly from the spoiler drive components and leave it attached to the engine cover. Doing this will save you time when removing and reinstalling the spoiler drive.
  • Disconnect the 2 main leads from the pump motor
  • Remove the entire plastic microswitch assembly from the right side actuator housing by locating and unscrewing the tiny Torx screws.

For 997 spoiler drives: do not remove the plastic wavy pump mounting bracket, it must be included with the pump.
